Glofox vs OfferingTree (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Glofox if

• Fits if you run a boutique fitness studio and want members booking in an app under your name
• Works for franchises and multi-location gyms that need roaming memberships and royalty billing

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want a price before a sales call, as Glofox only quotes after a form and a demo
• Not for you if you want to try it first: there's no free plan, trial or self-serve sign-up
• Not for you if you run a salon or spa, since Glofox is built for class-led fitness studios and gyms

Pick OfferingTree if

• Fits if you teach alone and want a booking site and classes in one place
• Works for studios of 3 to 6 that want staff and payroll reports

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: Essentials adds a 2.9% transaction fee and has only 2 automations
• Watch out: a branded app is $100 a month and two-way texting $25
• Tight if you add staff, as the individual plans cover 1 person and studios jump to $100
• Pricey if you need waitlists or text reminders, which start on Pro at $49
• Skip it if you want a free plan, as there isn't one
